I think that a power ranking could be made for our (UM) opponents based on how well those teams played us on that day. That list looks a little different than the overall list above. IMO. Thanks for the content, guys. I enjoy listening.
This is exactly something that drives me crazy people ask me all the time. How do I watch a Miami game? Where is it? The ACC TV contract sucks. Like at least get to play on your local channels.
I'm a Bama/SEC fan here. The problem with trying to compare SEC vs. ACC bias is at some point the ACC needs to schedule better OOC besides relying on Clemson and FSU. When those teams lose marquee games, it hurts your conference perception. Also, when was the last time the ACC had a Top 10 match up that didn't include Clemson or FSU in the conference?
GT lost by 8 points to UGA last year, GT is better this year, is UGA? I suppose we'll find out.. There's 4 SEC games left to go for ACC and most have nothing to lose except Clemson maybe, but I think they'll be treating South Carolina like a bowl game....ACC also plays ND many times....what's the best non ACC out of conference SEC played this year? USC and Michigan ?LoL😂 nope...It's ND
The last big top 5 win was probably Stanford over #3 Oregon, October 2nd, 2021. There are some retiring Seniors still on that team . Many key pieces like Stanford team captain and starting center Drake Nugent, went to play for Harbaugh, who then put undeserving Alabama in the trashcan where they belonged. Why was Oregon even #3 to begin with, you may wonder? They had already thrashed the Buckeyes in the Shoe In mid-September.
@MichaelSmith-xb5cp In the last 5 years, LSU and Alabama have played at Texas in years, and they finished Top 10 prior to SEC. Auburn has played Top 10. Oregon also played Penn St. Georgia went to South Bend recently. Those are just a few. Now do the ACC....I didn't include any recent additions.
Thanks for the content. I have a slightly different take on why the ACC as a brand in Football gets a bad rap. It is television but for different reasons. There will not be one SEC game on National television that is not completely sold out at the stadium. Not one. The ACC cannot promise or rarely deliver, unless it is Clemson, Florida State, V. Tech and NC State and sometimes UNC, Pitt, G Tech. Some ACC teams do not have their own stadium, ACC schools public or private may not have a large local alumni base to go to the games, has older local alumni that may or may not go and are not known for loud packed atmospheres. It makes for a bad television product, which is the only way that these entertainment entities will recoup the money with ratings and ad buys which it pays to a conference for television rights. Therefore, the ACC should start to immediately follow the NFL model of stadium size and amenities. Stadiums with semi open or totally closed roofs would help. The ACC teams in football play in very hot and rainy weather in the fall and does not make a great stadium or television presentation and closed stadiums are louder which is an added benefit for the teams and television. I would also recommend an opt out of football for the private universities that may not want that type of investment to benefit all parties. Finally, I would have divisions but with a catch. The first three games of the season dictate which divisions you will be in. The only draw back being that you may not play enough teams in your division, but your ACC record still counts toward division leaders. Not perfect, but it fixes the issue of bad teams being buffed by bad schedules as they are less likely in the ACC title game, while adding more game by game accountability and less tie breaker issues over time. Not perfect but it would give media three things that they love. Great venues in which to enjoy a product, fuller louder stadiums and increased atmosphere, more races to follow and how impact changes weekly for the ACC as a whole and by divisions. Flexibility for member entities which increases buy in if the agencies want to participate makes revenue share equitable for schools who buy in with stadium investments. Fans win with more media recognition, better venues and races and rivalries that they can follow.
Miami needs to show me difference on defense. Miami is known for their defense as far as championships. '83,87,89 ,91 and 2001 all had defensive performances that were above average. '92 Alabama beat us. 10 national titles played for with being on the sports Illustrated cover for dropping a program.
They'll get their chance next week. If Syracuse manages to go up and down the field against Miami, the Canes' defense isn't good enough to win a natty.
@@hartsickdisciple Yeah it's gonna be a test. I've been in the dome for a lot of games because I was born and raised in Syracuse. I've seen Miami in '92, '94, '96, when McNabb blew us out in '98 and 2002.
Regarding SEC Bias. The ACC is 2-5 this year vs SEC with 4 games to go. Until the ACC can win regularly against SEC schools, this is a silly conversation. If Miami goes on a run in the playoffs and wins 2 games against the best of the SEC, the conversation will shift to “Miami should be an SEC team”.
ACC could be 6-5 vs SEC after final week of regular season, possibly even 7-5 if you include ND in the ACC family. It would take FSU to beat Florida, but if they lose, then it's 6-6. The rest are winnable upsets for ACC underdogs GT, CLEMSON, and Louisville
If NC State loses to North Carolina, there is a REAL possibility that Stanford could finish ABOVE NC State in ACC standings for their inaugural season. How many would have predicted such an outcome??? Near universally, Stanford was predicted to finish 17th in preseason due to their freshman heavy roster. I'd like to petition that KENTO must sport a Stanford jersey if that eventuality be the case 😂
On the SEC being "overranked" topic... it's like a chicken and egg situation. Do they draw viewership cuz theyre good or are they perceived as good cuz of their viewership. I tend to side with the former. The preseason rankings aren't just pulled out of people's ass. They look at recruiting classes, returning starters, etc. I love SMU I'm an alum but we'd get destroyed by any of the top 6 teams in the SEC. Yall are being biased. SMU should've lost to Duke if were being honest. The ACC is just bad this year.
How dare you people talk shit about the mighty SEC SEC SEC, where 3/4 of that conference is in the top 25. Of course they have a “tougher” schedule based on ranking (because 3/4 of the conference starts in the top 25). Just stop rankings until week 6 to level things out. Of course that will never happen because of tv ratings.
@ No I don’t blame them. What’s I do blame them for is not taking about the ACC teams that are awful every year. They just tried giving Wake Forest credit and they’re 2-4 in conference lmao
A friend just told me to look for SMU. New Subscriber. Vols fan.

Valid point but they won't take that shit into account. Injured Players taking shots to play Miami when they come to town smh
Go SMU!
Pony Up 🐎 SMU
I think a lot of the disrespect that SMU has gotten isn't so much anti ACC bias it's "they was in a G5 conference last year" bias

C'mon. Miami left championships on the field in '84,92,94...2000 because of the rankings and we all know what happened with Terry Porter 😂😂

If are defense can do what they did today against wake forest, we should win the acc game

@ I’ll take things that won’t Age well for $400, Alex.
You forgot to mention how just last year acc went 8-4 against sec teams🤣interesting isn’t it?
What were the 5 highest watched regular season games on that list?
At 25:15, am I tripping or I tripping or does “PhD Scientist” just means doctors?
How is UVA ahead UNC when UNC beat them 41-14?
Look at my last comment, None of that happened in the ACC.
I'll come yell with you KG. I got your back fam
